    Ultramax is a commercial reloader.
    If they are anything like the outfit near me, they use whatever is reasonably suitable that is the cheapest this month. The nearby company used Chinese MP35 in pistol ammo when they could import from the Communists, and they used Vectan powders when that European brand failed on the American market and the distributors were selling it off cheap.

    That's right. I have several boxes of Ultramax shells for my 45LC. They seem to shoot awful dirty. Was just wondering if anyone knew what kind of powder they used?
